In circumstances with wastewater and seawater, the behavior of multi-ions including calcium, chloride others in concrete attracts attention. The present study investigated multiple mechanisms that could happen under special field situation above, calcium leaching, transport multi-ion coupling. To realize interactive ingress multi ions, simulation method for processing individual mutual influenc...

We present smooth formulations of common vortex detectors that allow a seamless integration into the concept of interactive visual analysis of flow simulation data. We express the originally binary feature detectors as fuzzy-sets that can be combined using the linking and brushing concepts of interactive visual analysis. Both interaction and visualization gain from having multiple detectors con...

We study cold collisions between trapped ions and trapped atoms in the semiclassical (Langevin) regime. Using Yb+ ions confined in a Paul trap and Yb atoms in a magneto-optical trap, we investigate charge-exchange collisions of several isotopes over three decades of collision energies down to 3 mueV (k_{B}x35 mK). The minimum measured rate coefficient of 6x10;{-10} cm;{3} s;{-1} is in good agre...

The effect of the simultaneous presence of monovalent and divalent cations on the thermodynamics of polyelectrolyte solutions is an incompletely solved problem. In physiological conditions, combinations of these ions affect structure formation in biopolymer systems. Dynamic light scattering measurements of the collective diffusion coefficient D and the osmotic compressibility of semidilute hyal...

The Fick diffusion equation is combined with the Langmuir adsorption isotherm and the relevant equations from the Gouy-Chapman theory of the electrical diffuse double layer to demonstrate that the effective diffusion coefficient of calcium ions, both in the cytoplasm of the rod outer segment and within the aqueous space bounded by the disk membrane, should be reduced by a factor of 10-100 becau...

In classical information theory it is well-known that feedback does not improve the channel capacity. We demonstrate that this is not the case in the interactive setting by developing a new coding scheme for interactive communication over the binary symmetric channel (BSC) with feedback that allows recovery of the original communication with vanishing probability of error. More precisely, we sh...

Distillation is an essential separation process in the chemical and petrochemical industry. The distillation process is a highly nonlinear, complex, interactive and non -stationary, therefore its control is difficult. In the present work an adaptive neuro-fuzzy controller is designed to control a binary distillation process. A conventional PID controller is also designed for comparison purpose....

In this study, Saccharum bengalense(SB) was used as biosorbent for the removal of Mn (II) ions from aqueous solution. The influence of biosorbent dose, time, pH and temperature was investigated in the biosorption process. Studies showed that by increasing pH of the solution, metal removing efficiency of Saccharum bengalensefrom the aqueous environment was enhanced but to a specific extent, ...

Recent extension of mean spherical approximation (MSA) for electrolyte solution has been employed to investigate the non-ideality in Born-free energy of solvation of a rigid, mono-positive ion in binary dipolar mixtures of associating (ethanol–water) and non-associating (dimethylsulfoxide– acetonitrile) solvents. In addition to the dipole moments, the solvent size ratio and ion size have been t...
